THE ROCR ISLAND MURDER.
A Confession Which is Said to Give the
Desired Clue,

Confession Which Is said TO Give the
Desired Clue,
CHICAGO, ILL, Feb. ll.-Regarding the
alleged developments In the Rock Islam d
express robbery and murder care, a spe-
cisl dispatch from Morris, Illinois, whore
Henry Schwartz is confined, says:
Developments since Monday, including
the confession from Mrs. Schwartz, which
it is said, furnishes the much de-
sired clue, will lead to the ar
rest of two and possibly three
parties in Chicago. If three persons are
arrested, Newton Watts will be
one of them, though it is still
believed he is innocent. The
names of the other two are withheld
for the present. These men are the ones
who actually committed the double crime
of murder and ROBBERY, the former
being resorted to in order to
avoid recognition as the perpetrators
of the latter. Henry Schwartz's connec-
ton with the affair was that of an access
sorry, and his duty on the night
of it's commission was to
guard against anyone entering
the express car between Joliet and Nor
ris. The story as partially revealed here
Is to the effect that Schwartz and
three other railroad men conceived
the idea of robbing the express
car. Their intimate knowledge OF
the messengers habits and the running
time and stopping places Of the train,
making it tolerable safe for them to en-
gage in it. The plan contemplated doing
the work between the two points
named above for the reason that the coal
ing sheds Just west Of Joliet offered the
best place on the road to gain ad-
mission to the express car with
out being seen by persons
not interested. 1t was said that murder
was not thought of at the time. Two
men, still at large, boarded the train
in Chicago and both were pro-
yided with tickets to Joliet. They
occupied seats in the forward smoker and
when the train stopped at Joliet Station
both made q pretense of getting off the
train. They may have done this, but
instantly boarded 1t again, this time, how
ever, between the two express cars. 1t
was Schwartz's duty to prevent this very
thing, and he would doubtless have

train was to 90 west in the morning In
stead of at night, and the through Tex
arkana train was to go at night in place OF
in the morning, while the bob-tail west was
to be discontinued. Up to last night
these statements We're current, but a
Texas and Pacific official informed THE
GAZETTE that the contemplated change
would not be made Sunday and had been
indefinitely postponed. This will be
good news to the cities west OF Fort
Worth.
There is one source only of news in re-
gard to the prospective movements OF
Mr.. Huntingdon in railroad building in
Texas, and that is Houston. A gentle
man from that city, who was in Fort
Worth yesterday, says that if the Houston
and Texas Central Company is not re-
organized by March 10. the construction
of the Southern Pacific from Woodville
through Crockett to Waxahachie will be
commenced at once and by early sum
mer, no matter what is dofe
in regard to the Central. When
this road is built the Fort Worth
ana New Orleans, he says, will become a
part of it, and Fort Worth will be one OF
the termini of the Southern Pacific, Fort
Worth and New Orleans division. While
the Southern Pacific will own this road it
will probably be built under the Fort
Worth and New Orleans charter and the
name of the road will show where it
runs
